Hello
Thanks for your query,based on the facts that you have posted it appears that your husband has swollen inflamed nipple .
This is due to infection of the nipple and needs to be treated by antibiotics for one week.
Please take broad spectrum antibiotic like Augmentin along with anti inflammatory medicine Diclofenac twice daily.
This should get cured with this treatment.
